The LT4424 has a simple interface that allows OEM Host communications with the transceiver.  Table 1 
– Pin Definitions, shows the connector pin numbers and associated functions.  The I/O direction is with 
regard to the transceiver.  All I/O is 5VDC TTL level signals except for RSSI. All inputs are weakly pulled 
High and may be left floating during normal operation.

Hop Frame 
HOP FRAME – Active Low when the transceiver is hopping. 
CTS 
Clear to Send – Active Low when the transceiver is ready to accept data for transmission. 
RTS 
Request to Send – When enabled in EEPROM, active Low when the OEM Host is ready to 
accept data from the transceiver.  NOTE:  Keeping RTS High for too long can cause data loss.

12 I/O 9600_BAUD/ 
Packet Frame 
9600_BAUD – When pulled logic Low before applying power or resetting the transceiver’s 
serial interface is forced to a 9600, 8, N, 1 rate.  To exit, transceiver must be reset or power-
cycled with 9600_Baud logic High. 
*Note: 9600_BAUD should only be used to recover the radio from an unknown baud rate and 
should not be used during normal operation. 
 
Packet Frame – When programmed in EEPROM, Packet Frame will transition logic Low at the 
start of a received RF packet and transition logic High at the completion of the packet. 
13 
RSSI 
Received Signal Strength Indicator - An analog output giving a relative indication of received 
signal strength while in Receive Mode. 
14 
WR_ENA 
EEPROM Write Enable – When pulled logic Low, it allows the Host to write the on-board 
EEPROM.  Resetting the transceiver with this pin pulled Low may corrupt EEPROM data. 
15 
UP_RESET 
RESET – Controlled by the LT4424 for power-on reset if left unconnected. After a Stable power-
on (250ms) a 50us logic High pulse will reset the LT4424.  Do not power up the transceiver 
with this pin tied Low.

Command/Data 
When logic Low, transceiver interprets Host data as command data.  When logic High, 
transceiver interprets Host data as transmit data.

IN_RANGE 
In Range – Active Low when a Client radio is in range of a Server on same Channel with the same 
System ID.
